Presentation Transcript

  1. Computing Neurons- An Introduction -Kenji Doyadoya@oist.jp Neural Computation Unit Initial Research ProjectOkinawa Institute of Science and Technology

  2. `Computing Neurons’ • What/How are neurons computing? • Network • Single cell • Synapse • How can we compute neurons? • Dendrites, channels, receptors, cascades • Simulators, databases • Understanding by re-creating

  3. Multiple Scales • (Churchland & Sejnowski 1992)

  4. Outline • Neurobiology • Nervous system • Neurons • Synapses • Computation • Functions • Dynamical systems • Learning

  5. Nervous System • Forebrain • Cerebral cortex (a) • neocortex • paleocortex: olfactory cortex • archicortex: basal forebrain, hippocampus • Basal nuclei (b) • neostriatum: caudate, putamen • paleostriatum: globus pallidus • archistriatum: amygdala • Diencephalon • thalamus (c) • hypothalamus (d) • Brain stem & Cerebellum • Midbrain (e) • Hindbrain • pons (f) • cerebellum (g) • Medulla (h) • Spinal cord (i)

  6. Neurons • Cortex Basal Ganglia Cerebellum • (Takeshi Kaneko) (Erik De Schutter)

  7. Hodgkin-Huxley Model • Neuron as electric circuit

  8. a Close 1-x Open x b Ionic Channels • Open-close dynamics • Identification by ‘voltage-clamp’ experiments

  9. ‘Current-Clamp’ Experiments

  10. i-1 i i+1 Axons and Dendrites • Compartment model • ga(Vi+1-Vi)+ga(Vi-1-Vi) = C dVi/dt + Im(Vi,mi,hi,ni)

  11. Synapses • spike  transmitter  receptor  conductance

  12. Transmitters Acetylcholine Glutamate GABA Dopamine/Serotonin Noradrenaline/Histamine Enkephaline Substance-P Adenosine/ATP NO Ionotropic Receptors Excitatory: Na+, Ca2+ Inhibitory: K+, Cl- Metabotropic Receptors G-protein cyclic AMP ... Transmitters and Receptors

  13. Purkinje cell (Doi et al. 2005) Medium-spiny neuron (Nakano et al. 2006) Signal ‘Transduction’ Pathway

  14. Molecular Reactions • Binding reaction • Enzymatic reaction: Michaelis-Menten equation

  15. Protein Synthesis, Gene Regulation • DNA  mRNA  protein • promoter/inhibitor

  16. Outline • Neurobiology • Nervous system • Neurons • Synapses • Computation • Functions • Dynamical systems • Learning

  17. Functions • mapping: x  y ...can be many-to-many • function: y = f(x) ...unique output • Linear • f(x1+x2) = f(x1) + f(x2) • f(ax) = a f(x) • y = Ax • scale, rotation, shear • Affine: y = Ax+b • translation • Nonlinear

  18. Dynamical Systems • Discrete: x(t+1) = f( x(t)) • Continuous: dx(t)/dt = f( x(t)) • Linear: dx(t)/dt = Ax(t) • exponential • sinusoidal • Nonlinear • multiple equilibria • limit cycle • Bifurcation

  19. Unsupervised Learning output input Reinforcement Learning reward output input Supervised Learning target + error - output input Learning • Supervised • samples (x1,y1), (x2,y2),... • function y = f(x) • Reinforcement • state x, action y, reward r • policy y = f(x) or P(y|x) • Unsupervised • samples x1, x2,... • probabilistic model P(x|y)

  20. Survival catch battery packs Reproduction copy ‘genes’ through IR ports Rewards for Cyber Rodents

  21. Cerebral Cortex：Unsupervised Learning output input Basal Ganglia: Reinforcement Learning reward output input Cerebellum: Supervised Learning target + error - output input Specialization by Learning Algorithms (Doya, 1999) Cortex Basal thalamus Ganglia SN Cerebellum IO
